I had a list of 20 shops to put on my rumbler and pacesetters. I got through the first 19 and no one would install the headers. Luckily for me the 20th one would. They are installing my pacesetters, rumbler, and high flow cat for $250-325. He said the most would be $325 but most likely it will be about $250. From what i know this is a damn good price for getting all of that installed. So after buying the pacesetters rumbler and high flow cat and then getting them installed its gonna total out at $920. Now im just waiting on it to go have some fun.

I can garuntee you the mechanics will slit their bosses throat for making them install the headers for so little payment. Either way they will NOT be grinning when they get done.Originally posted by ellik:

I went ahead and gave the guy the gaskets that come with the headers instead of getting metal ones. I just hope i didnt make a mistake by doing that.1996 Camaro -- SLP CAI, Motorvator TB spacer, MSD 8.5 mm wires, 180 thermostat, Pacesetter headers, Catco 3 in cat, TSP Rumbler, custom painted interior, 18x9.5 Z06 replica wheels, Nexen N3000 265/35r18 tires, - Best 1/4 mile 15.3@89mphComment

Putting on headers was easy. I did the whole install on my own over the weekend. The problem is with the bending of one primary away from the steering linkage. The Y pipe flange will have to be cut cause it's hitting the driver's side K member and it won't line up right so it might have to be bend some. And lastly, the design where the Y pipe meets the headers is bad and they will leak. But if the headers were a nice high quality set, then one person can do it in a couple of hours no problem.Comment
